‘I fell in love with my psychiatrist’: Here’s the full crazy saga explained after 25 TikToks

She’s convinced he’s secretly watching the TikToks


There’s currently a woman on TikTok, Kendra Hilty, detailing how she fell in love with her psychiatrist after he manipulated her. It’s seriously unhinged and highly controversial, so much so that Kendra is now on part 25.5 of the saga.

I’m going to break this down so you don’t need a therapist of your own after reading this. Jokes aside, everyone should seek therapy, girlies, just not this dude.

Who is Kendra Hilty from TikTok?

@kendrahilty

This story has being weighing on me and I will share. But first, I’d like to hear what people have to say and know that I’m not the only one.

Kendra Hilty is a content creator on TikTok, but she’s also a life coach, tutor, yoga instructor, ADHD coach, and spiritual response therapy coach – the woman’s got some serious range.

Though most of her content seems to hinge around helping people with ADHD, that all changed at the start of the month when Kendra unpacked falling in love with her unidentified psychiatrist.

Here’s what happened between Kendra Hilty and her psychiatrist

As much as I’m totally enthralled by this completely unhinged saga, there is no reasonable way I am rehashing all 25 10-minute videos, so here’s the drive-by rundown.

Replying to @Kendra 🧘🏼‍♀️ a little check in.

Around four years ago, Kendra sought out a new therapist through Google and came across a “good-looking” man around her own age. She felt “seen” as they discussed past trauma, describing it as a “trauma bond” that connected them.

Soon enough, she was catching the old feels, but rather than keep her bubbling attraction to herself – or you know, find a different therapist – Kendra confessed her feelings and told him she would “pour out [her] love and devotion to him.”

In January 2023, Kendra talked about her unsatisfying sex life with her boyfriend, confessing her attraction to the psychiatrist who “smiled so big” at the admission. Those professional boundaries became more and more “blurry” as the psychiatrist bounced between “hot and cold”; one minute confessing that he liked her glasses, which she wore in the TikToks in case he watches them,  and the next pointing out that it’s only a professional relationship.

She also described the infatuation as an “addiction”, and over the course of 25.5 TikToks, Kendra has detailed their sessions in excruciating detail.

You might also see the name Henry being thrown about, but don’t worry, that’s just the ChatGPT therapist that Kendra also admitted to falling for.

So like, why is she making the videos?

Kendra Hilty said she’s making the psychiatrist TikToks because she wants to shed light on exploitative practices within therapy spaces. She claims her therapist should have ended the professional relationship once her feelings were confessed, but she stopped seeing him five months ago.

In one of their final sessions, she admitted to having a sex dream about him. He was allegedly visibly uncomfortable by her explanation, despite the fact that “he had probably played out that fantasy so many times in his head.”

“I am proud of myself for telling my story. The internet had a huge backlash because I am exposing something that not many people talk about: exploitation by people in power. I have healed myself and others in this process, while learning I’m stronger than I think,” she told The Cut.

This saga is not over, so keep your eyes peeled for more “I fell in love with my psychiatrist” content.
